Just a regular thirty-something-year-old trying to capture the essence of life in writing. Join me as I journey through the ups, the downs and the adventures in between.

From Here to Oklahoma

Posted on July 22, 2014

One thousand miles and about seven state lines separate us. Before he left for Oklahoma, we were chatting through the crunches of warm, restaurant-style tortillas doused with spinach dip (our favorite). He made a humorous presentation utilizing Sweet’N low sugar packets: “THIS is you. THIS is the New Jersey state line. At no point during this month do you cross the state line.” Although I am horrified of the violently rotating columns of air we like to call tornadoes, Brian knows I would hop on the next plane to see him, regardless. However, after his convincingly sweet lecture, pun intended, I agreed. With that said, it is amazing how many television shows one can watch in a month – that $7.99 monthly Netflix fee proved to be quite the investment. Anyway, Brian comes home on Saturday and I cannot wait! Funny thing is, although he is one thousand miles away, it doesn’t feel like he ever left my side.
